CU 94-12 <br /> <br />ISSUE <br /> <br />Request for a conditional use permit to operate an outdoor farmers market in <br />the Jackson Square parking lot. <br /> <br />LOCATION <br /> <br />Jackson Square parking lot at the intersection of Jackson and Main Street. <br /> <br />tt ATTACHMENTS <br /> <br />Report to Planning Commission dated April 26, 1994 <br /> <br />OVERVIEW <br /> <br />The Sherburne County Growers Association received a conditional use permit <br />on February 24, 1993, to operate a farmers market in the parking lot between <br />King Avenue and Jackson Avenue, lying south of Highway 10. Although this <br />location was used by the Growers Association last year, the group is <br />considering moving to Jackson Square parking lot to gain additional <br />exposure and hopefully attract customers downtown. The farmers market <br />would be in operation Wednesdays from 1 p.m. to 7 p.m., and Sundays 12 <br />noon to 5 p.m., May through October. Approximately 8-10 vendors will be <br />offering home grown produce for sale and would occupy those parking stalls <br />on either side of the landscaped island in the middle of the parking lot. The <br />attached site plan clearly illustrates the area intended to be used by the <br />farmers market. <br /> <br />tt <br /> <br />P.O.
